Shared folder slow to open

Having an issue that is driving me mad. On the new Vista Laptop we have with
Vista business connected to a 2003 Server R2 the shared folder with the
website in it 5000+ picture files takes about a minutes to open every single
time. If we access it on the Windows XP machines it works straight away so I
assume this is a vista issue anyone come across it or have an answer

I hear you! 2003SrvSP2 with XP/Vista clients. Access to network shares have
slow response times. Tweaking the settings of the TCP Auto-Tuning have helped
some, but not all, users.

Hi,

Thanks for the response. Not sure what you mean by TCP tuner not come across
that before. I have tried disabling offline files and a manual IP and DHCP as
well. I have also given the user full permissions but still the same.

I take it you have 100MB rate network connections?

Thanks for the response the client machine has 100MB connection at both ends.

Have you tried disabling autotuning (from the client computer) with the
"netsh" command switch?

Have you tried disabling (at the client computer) auto-tuning using the
'netsh' command switch?
